Camp X-Ray (2014)
4/10
Not real
27 December 2014
Warning: Spoilers
I watched this movie because my friend was afraid to watch Poker Night thriller movie , so we booked two tickets for camp x-ray

I didn't know anything about the story of the movie before i went to the theater and i find that makes my judgment fair.

I. Story line:

I read a lot about Gtmo camp (I'm an Arab , in case you didn't notice). This movie is making Guantanamo like 5 stars detention hotel. The camera just making a glimpse on the human rights violations , just a glimpse. I don't see starvation, beating, sex slaving.

II. Picture:

Well, not because the movie is talking about a prison that you lock us up. I don't know the director did that on purpose or he just did it like that, but i felt the most uncomfortable feeling in the most comfortable place to me (the cinema). 80% of the scenes were shot in the corridor between the cells with annoying colors. the robotic motion of the guards checking on the detainees, so annoying , and i don't think it is real.

III. Acting:

Kristin Stewart was very good in this character, finally she found what might fit her!! Payman Maadi, i see an excellent actor locked up in a cell of a bad made movie.

Summary : I need my money back!!!
